TM Report: Hartman Park

Date: 12/12/12
Report Type: TM Report
Trail Name: Hartman Park
Town: Lyme
Trail Conditions: good..
Observations/Information: went out with a few people from the town of Lyme to finish the re-blazing of the Red trail, last section is now done. kinda a hike out but it was good as way more people showed than expected so we went out as 2 crews and worked from each end toward the middle, got done pretty fast actually considering it's a good 1/2 hour hike out to that section.

One note that some may get upset about is the major downhill/fault line we closed, is WAY to rough and heavily eroded. The actual trail never did go down it but a LOT of people used it as a short cut/ downhill thrill. We blocked it off and moved leaves to show the real tread line, then hid the old line really well so hopefully most people wont even notice till they are on a section they don't recognize.. We'll see if some crazy down hiller types try and re-open it... hopefully not.

Our Mission

The Central Connecticut chapter of the New England Mountain Bike Association (CCT NEMBA) is a community of mountain bikers and trail advocates dedicated to advancing the sport of mountain biking in Connecticut. Since 1997 we have worked with land managers to build, maintain, and improve legal trails and support appropriate trail use. We organize rides, offer educational trail schools to all trail users, and build relationships within the mountain bike community of riders, trail builders, shops, advocates, and others. We support mountain biking because it is a fun, healthy activity that all ages and abilities can enjoy.
